Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Re: HOA Issue

I suggest going to the HOA Board meeting and presenting your case. Let them know that you purchased it this way and that you did not make any changes.

It is likely that the HOA rules have requirements for the painting of the shutters and it is also very likely that you will need to repaint them to be in compliance. A review of the HOA rules and regulations would be necessary for a better answer.

Re: HOA Issue

I would be pleased to write your HOA on my letterhead and tell them to go pound sand; for my nominal $100 fee, PayPal accepted. If you accept this offer, please be sure and fax or scan and email me the correspondence.

Re: HOA Issue

If you write them a letter now, it may save you trouble down the road. Let me know if you want me to write it for a small fee.

Best,

Daniel Bakondi, Esq.

Re: HOA Issue

Yeah, but ask whether the letter writers will assure you your position is correct and you'll prevail. I'm not an HOA rules expert, but my limited experience suggests that this rule in enforceable and can be enforced against subsequent owners for the mistakes of their precursors. Why fight it? By the time the litigation is over, you'll have spent thousands and it'll be time to repaint anyway.
